Video playback

The previewer and resizer for video capture must be initialized by the user. You can do that in two ways:

1. Compile and install the ipiped application located in the File System Configuration->Select target's file system software section of the configuration screen (make config). This application allows to get control over some video capturing properties (for more information see Auto exposure and auto white balance library). You can initialized the previewer and resizer by running the following command:

ipipe-client run-config-script dm365_mt9p031_config

or you can run this command instead:

ipipe-client set-previewer-mode cont

NOTE: The initialization must be done before any video capture session.

2. The V4L2 source element (v4l2src) as a build in property called chain-ipipe which automatically initializes the previewer when it is set (by default it is set to true).

NOTE: when using one of the methods described above the other one must not be used since this can create a conflict when the code tries to re-initialize the previewer.
